Favorite Takeaways From This Episode

  • Nothing beats face to face interaction and human to human connection-especially when it comes to conducting business.
  • Video marketing (Facebook Live, IG Live, etc.) is a great way to establish connection in the online space.
  • Building know, like, and trust is much easier when people can see your face.
  • People allow their ego to get in the way and don’t focus on the potential client. 
  • You should be thinking about how to serve THEM rather than, “what’s in it for me?”
  • People don’t guide people through problem solving enough. When selling, it’s important to help the potential client THROUGH an experience.
  • The conversation should be a form of excellence and empathy.
  • Ask people more questions about what they would like to experience.
  • Helping people not be so afraid to invest is crucial.
  • Ask people more questions when in a sales conversation.
  • Finding the emotional trigger that gets them to take action is important in selling without being ingenuine.
  • Most of your sales conversations should be spent listening.
  • You sell more than you think you sell.
  • You sell customer service, consistency, reliability, way more than just the product or service.
  • You are the authority & expert in the space, so YOU set the tone for the conversation.
  • Outline how the conversation will go before you start and ask “does that sound good to you?”
  • Guiding the conversation and talking the most are two TOTALLY different things.
  • Asking questions helps people sell to THEMSELVES.
  • You should not be afraid if the person you’re talking to isn’t the best fit to work with you.
  • Rejection is redirection.
  • Sales should be fun!
  • We have made money a taboo subject as a culture, so the more we normalize it, the better we can sell & steward an exchange of money for service.
  • Money is abundant, time is limited.
  • Communities thrive when their leaders are looking out for what’s best for their people rather than themselves.
  • Communities thrive when their leaders create an experience for their people and they leave changed.
  • You either evolve or die - you either choose to figure it out and become better, or you don’t solve the problem.
  • Being a CEO means leaving a legacy.
